Bank’s woes continue

ASTWOOD BANK’S Birmingham League Division Two struggles continued as they slipped to a three-wicket defeat at Coventry & North Warwickshire on Saturday.

Opener Rob West (80) starred as the visitors reached 147-2, but only Tom Pedley and Tom Underhill with 29 apiece made other notable contributions and the visitors were restricted to 202-8 off their 55 overs.

Tom Harris removed both home openers to leave Cov & NW 2-2 but the hosts fought their way back into proceedings despite 4-48 from Dan Taylor.

At 108-5, the match hung in the balance, but Harry Horsley’s unbeaten 42 proved enough to seal victory for the hosts.
